I was raised by my momma I got mood swings
On this road to be a man I had to do things
I thought it wasn’t love until I felt pain
And then I fell in love and got a Boo thing
I was trying to find my way Trying to find guidance, I was just a young black brother wild’n
Single parent home that’s the Hood college we gone make it one day

Momma taught me everything but how to be a man
A single parent home they don’t understand
I had to travel on this road on my own ain’t no telling where I’m going
It’s hard when ain’t don’t got a plan
I couldn’t get my head right I tried to figure out
Family picture says it all this my momma house
Family picture we involved I’ll thug about, I know I broke my momma heart I heard you crying out
Dear lord please save my baby, You know I’m doing wrong but I’m still yo baby
I know you prayed for me baby
You the one who gave me advice on the daily
Showed me what is love and the prices I’m paying
Showed me that it’s real you gone always be around right or wrong you gone hold a nigga down
I remember seeing tears on your face I felt your pain every time a fuck nigga chose to play around

Hard times taught me everything my daddy didn’t, On graduation day I ain’t get a visit
But every phone call yea a nigga listen
The message kind of late but a nigga get it
Cause who am I to try and criticize that nigga life
Look in the mirror I ain’t God who say I’m living right , Look in the mirror I see you but in a different light, counting my blessings it’s a blessing just to count em right
Every father want to see his son doing right
Been in fights Big dawg I ain’t scared to bite
Been through it see the Scars on a nigga arm I ain’t fearing nan nigga but myself huh
I got to keep it one thousand till the end though
You ever need anything that’s what I’m here for
I felt tour pain in your voice Pops you got to know
You got a real one on your side and I ain’t letting Go
